NACA Mid America 2013
I am very excited to be part of NACA Mid America this year. What I am even more proud of is that I am the only self represented comedian that was selected to showcase. I'll be performing a 15 minute set at 9p Friday, November 8th. Come on by booth 516 (I believe).

SUV Driver Successfully Climbs "Bump in the Road"
Chicago, IL- Never before has the thought entered the mind of SUV drivers in America. Veteran SUV driver, Mike Maxwell took the lead by driving his standard issue SUV through a residential construction zone. The good people in orange gave Mike and his fellow motorists the heads up of a "Bump Ahead."
As Mike expected, the German engineered luxury SUV ahead of him slowed nearly to a complete stop as they approached the treacherous 1.5 inch climb. "I suppose if I was a finely tuned German suspension, I'd like someone to cut me a little slack too." Mike said as he flipped through all his radio presets.
Once Maxwell had the space to move, he did what no other SUV owner has ever done while approaching uneven pavement. He hit the gas pedal, with relative force. Not teenage jackass cruising force, just I gotta get this pizza home warm force.
Mike associates his grace under fire with such unique road conditions to his seven MarioKart Star Cup Championships.

Chicago Cubs Promotion of the film ‘Se7en’ Comes Full Circle
Chicago, IL: The 2013 baseball season is just a few weeks old but what is being confirmed as an epic tribute to director David Fincher’s ‘Seven.’ This week Chicago Cub fans were treated to the story that Cubs owner Tom Ricketts was delivered a box with a goat’s head inside. Although Ricketts has made no official comment on this gesture rumored to be done by a crazed Cubs fan, it is well known that Theo Epstein is a huge fan of the 1995 Brad Pitt movie.
Chicago Police have confirmed that indeed this goat head in
a box is more of a cinematic tribute than another pathetic attempt of a Cubs
fan to deny the fact they are willingly supporting a perpetually failing
organization. There have been accounts
of the other seven deadly sins in and around Wrigley Field since the 1995
release of the dynamic Brad Pitt & Morgan Freeman masterpiece.
October 1996: Gluttony- Chicago Cubs fans poured into Wrigley Field to watch the
legendary play of Sandberg, Grace & Turk Wendell. Northwestern Memorial Hospital attributes the
37% spike in diabetes to their patients purely on the record sales of Old Style
beer & Champs Malt Cups sold at the stadium.
Spring 1998: Greed- Sammy
Sosa took it on himself to bulk up and chase the all-time home run record once
held by a legitimate baseball player, Roger Maris. Sosa denies any steroid use
during the ’98 season but equipment records show his batting helmet went from a
size ‘large’ in ’97 to a size ‘egomaniacal’ in ’98.
October 1998: Sloth- Thousands of Chicago Cubs fans feared any
change to their appearance after the team clinched a playoff spot would curse
their team & consequentially continue the nearly century long drought of
accomplishing anything. Wrigleyville, a community that prides itself on pretty little
faces, was plagued with men & women who refused to wear clean clothes or
shave for weeks. A dark, funky time in Chicago history.
Spring 2003: Lust- Cubs management created a starting pitching
roster that boasted Mark Prior, Kerry Wood, Carlos Zambrano, & Matt Clement. Fans drunk off an actual winning season were
swooning for the pitchers, even the portly and mentally unstable Zambrano.
October 2003: Pride- In what turned out to be a pivotal moment in
Chicago Cubs franchise history, their outfielder who prides himself on
urinating on his hands, Moises Alou, botches an attempt to catch a foul ball as
it goes out of play. Immediately Moises blames a fan that also went for the
ball. To this day, Alou is publicly satisfied that it was not him that had to
move out of state and change his name and quit his job.
April 2013 Envy & Wrath: After laying low for nearly a decade, Theo
Epstein hires someone to deliver a box to Tom Ricketts at Wrigley Field. Upon opening the box, Ricketts recoils in
horror from what he sees inside the box.
Epstein admitted to Tom Ricketts that he was guilty of envy. Theo had
become jealous of the goat’s simpler life.
Epstein admitted he tried to “play along” with the curse but it didn’t work
out so he took a souvenir instead “his pretty head.” It was Theo Epstein’s plan
all along to kill the Cubs franchise.
Tom Ricketts is so devastated he signs the official documents moving the
Cubs to Rosemont Illinois. In killing all that is Wrigleyville, Tom Ricketts
comes to embody the sin of wrath.
